Dennis,

Very handsome indeed.

I have a Beocord 8004 and 9000….. love them both! (Very similar to your 8002.)

Enjoy!   😁

Jeff

Question is, if it really is a BeoCord 8002... 😎

Dennis,

I saw no reason to “rain on your parade,” especially with such a handsome unit, however the black buttons are incorrect…… they should be aluminum colour.

It is YOUR unit, what do YOU think it is? Now you have be curious!   😳

Jeff

Next object.

Denis - I have an identical pair of P45 speakers only mine are with a teak surround.  I use them as a spare set and are still working brilliantly.

I haven't seen many Type V's available and have never heard them. How do they sound?

Dave.

They sound surprisingly good. No stunning base but with a clear and pleasant sound, especially if you are directly in front of them. Compared with Beovox 500, this is HiFi. The cabinets looks like World War III but that's just fun to deal with. Cables are spliced multiple times - I don't know if it is the right phase and the "crossovers" consists of an overwhelming number of components. 😁

Maybe I have taken water over my head...

Be careful when you go in there, lots of pics and cross check all the caps against the complicated drawings, if changing the spliced cables, use oxygen free cables left twisted for left channel and right twisted for right channel. Good luck with it. And the preamp for the BG 1000 looks like new, will come in right after my BM/BL project. Thanks ***

I'm glad you understood the irony of my posting, Soren. There is hardly any parts of these boxes and at the same time, thank you very much for the for sure vital knowledge of the cables. Of course I'll use right and left cable. It is just as important as putting the shoes on the right feet.

I, as many others, follow your threads about the 5000 system with great interest. You inspire me to one day lift the lid to my own devices, although they still sounds and looks really good.

Keep your good job up and thank you!
